Hello and thank you for choosing "Ask a Doctor service for your query sir,
I hope you can understand that the images posted by you are sections taken during the entire process of ultrasound of upper abdomen which means that if complete process took. 20 minutes these 5 images represents 5 seconds of those.
Now ultrasound is a very subjective test in easy words if a person is chronic alocoholic and his liver is showing fatty changes then it's something to worry about however the same person if is above 35 and show mild moderate fatty changes and is non alcoholic then it's called aging.
Before giving any opinion biased on 5 images I would like to know your history!
Precisely why was the process done?
Are you there for normal check up?
History of alcohol smoking or any gastro related problem?
Hope you can understand that just by seeing some images one can't comment on a person's health.
Please follow up with details!
Regards!

Basically 3 years of upper right abdominal pain mild to moderate intermittent. With no answers. Ihave had ct of abdomen and pelvis, ultrasound of liver, mri of abdomen, every lab test, small bowel follow through. I had my gallbladder removed 20 years ago, I take 2 medications a bile salt supplement because its the only way to keep it from hurting when i eat, and i take lipitor for elevated cholesterol. I have been off my lipitor for a week because i needed to make a follow up appointment, being off of it for a week had a definite negative effect on me... When i did i make my appointment i had my labs drawn and everything was crazy high again just being off of it for a week? See attached lab work.
What is this? LIver issues? Thyroid issues? I have had my thyroid labs checked last year?
